I consider that great news that the fixes were easy enough and successfully repaired! My amp is at the tech right now and I am expecting something similar in terms of needing the wiring and connections re-soldered and reinforced (being that I have had to press on the top plate or tap the amp a...

I'm glad. I didn't want to say anything to jinx you, but for me, these tubes were always hidden gems/underrated in the grand scheme of the 12AT7 family. I found these to be really superior tubes and tried to hoard acquire these when I could find them. My favorites were the Toshiba branded...

Brimars are cream of the crop when it comes to that sweet mid-range with nice staging and details. Cannot go wrong with these!

So have the Matsu-Mullards successfully passed the 15 minute test? :beyersmile:

Patrick is an excellent buyer and a very valued HF and audio community member. Stellar communication, prompt payments and smooth transactions all the time! Always a pleasure to do business with! Thank you as always!

Looking forward to hearing your impressions here vs the 6DJ8 tubes. Just be careful with the gain! Happy listening!

I am in the camp of not minding the bright light at all. I've always been a sucker for the LED lights, just as I've always been a sucker for the tube glow. So I never minded any of the bright lights (as per usual for Schiit gear). I think the fan underneath is pretty cool (no pun intended)...

Lol. I've been testing this out, and mine definitely dims after a period of time, so this is either one helluva mod that was done on this light, or its dying inside a bit. I asked because I remembered that a few owners here questioned at how white and bright the light was, and efforts to...

Excellent seller! Great communication and prompt shipping! A trusted seller and would do business with again anytime. Many thanks!

I have a question for Oblivion owners out there. As I am trying to figure out the quirks with the amp, and trying to ascertain what is normal and what isn't - this could be rather strange question about the LED light (power indicator). So when you flip the switch on, the light is bright as...

Paul is great to work with. Excellent buyer, great communication and a smooth transaction! Is a pleasure to deal with, thank you!

If one is going to hit up Langrex, you might as well get your Brimar, GEC and any other British tubes fix while you are there.

Well not to generalize per se, but what you are saying somehow tracks with my own perception and expectation of the RCA house sound. Warm, laid back, boring. Lol. Though the etch is surprising. But you're right, my expectation when I had a pair (mine were Amperex A-Frame PQ Orange Print...

@Nayyte sorry those tubes from Brent Jesse stopped impressing. May I ask - do you know if those Amperex tubes were US made or Holland made? I'm curious to know as I've heard they have different takes on sound. Tube Rolling can be a challenge, and you're right despite reviews, having heard...

This has gotta be on a flag on your lawn, right? Or at least a banner atop you mountain of Fotons stash....
